USDA’s Office of the Inspector General says the Trump administration hasn’t followed the proper procedure to move the Economic Research Service and the National Institute for Food and Agriculture from Washington D.C. to the Kansas City area.

Plaskett says it’s a shameless attempt to force dedicated civil servants out of their livelihoods.
